Bill Gates is estimated to be worth about $56B, roughly half of which is
MSFT stock. So you earn nearly $100,000 a year (which is what I guessed,
knowing MU professor pay scales) which is many peoples' definition of
rich- that "six figure income."
You may not have billions of dollars and the clout that comes with it,
but you're considered to be rich by most people as well as the federal
government, who generally draws the "rich" line near $85k.
